livemint.com

Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Pat Cummins praised his batters after they scored 286 runs in their recent match against Rajasthan Royals. He said it was "scary" to see how well his team was hitting the ball, adding that he wouldn't want to bowl against his own players. Hyderabad won the match by 44 runs. Cummins noted that having a big score like that makes it easier for bowlers. He emphasized the importance of keeping the team's core players together. Bowler Harshal Patel also commented on the advantage of having a large total. He said it allows bowlers to focus on defending their wickets rather than being overly aggressive. He felt they executed their plans well in the later stages of the game. Rajasthan's stand-in captain, Riyan Parag, explained their decision to bowl first. He acknowledged that it was a tough match and credited Sunrisers for their performance. Parag expressed that while the decision to bowl was a team effort, better execution could have yielded different results.
